Psalms 16
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Michtam of David. Keep me, O God; for I have taken refuge in Thee.
1E HOOLA mai oe ia'u, e ke Akua: Ke hilinai aku nei au ia oe.
2I have said unto the LORD: 'Thou art my Lord; I have no good but in Thee';
2E kuu uhane, ua i aku oe ia Iehova, O oe no ko'u Haku; Aole i hiki aku ko'u maikai ia oe;
3As for the holy that are in the earth, they are the excellent in whom is all my delight.
3Aka, i ka poe haipule ma ka honua, A me ka poe maikai a'u e hauoli nei.
4Let the idols of them be multiplied that make suit unto another; their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take their names upon my lips.
4E hoonuiia'na ka eha o ka poe e hahai i ka mea e; Aole au e mohai aku i ko lakou mohaiinu koko, Aole hoi e hapai i ko lakou inoa i kou mau Iehelehe.
5O LORD, the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup, Thou maintainest my lot.
5O Iehova ka io o ko'u hooilina a me ko'u kiaha; Ke hoomau mai nei oe i ko'u pauku.
6The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
6Ua lilo mai na palena ia'u i kahi e mahalo ai; Oiaio, ua ili mai ia'u ka aina maikai.
7I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel; yea, in the night seasons my reins instruct me.
7E hoomaikai aku au ia Iehova, nana ka olelo i haawi mai ia'u, Ua ao mai hoi ia'u ko'u mau puupaa i na po.
8I have set the LORD always before me; surely He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
8Ke waiho mau nei no au ia Iehova imua o ko'u alo: Oia ma ko'u lima akau, nolaila au e kulanalana ole ai.
9Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth; my flesh also dwelleth in safety;
9Nolaila ko'u naau o hauoli nei, a e olioli nei ko'u nani, Oiaio, e hoomaha hoi ko'u kino me ka manaolana.
10For Thou wilt not abandon my soul to the nether-world; neither wilt Thou suffer Thy godly one to see the pit.
10No ka mea, aole oe e haalele i ko'u uhane i ka malu o ka make, Aole hoi oe e waiho iho i kou mea hoano a ike i ka palaho.
11Thou makest me to know the path of life; in Thy presence is fulness of joy, in Thy right hand bliss for evermore.
11E hoike mai no oe ia'u i ke kuamoo e ola'i; Ina no ma kou alo ka nui wale o ka olioli; Ma kou lima akau ka hauoli mau loa.
